Glad to hear that you're ok.
The main thing with all diets is to be committed and stick to them till the end.
It's mostly a mental thing.

Pounds lost-46
Current weight-188
Half Marathon Time- 01:51:14
36th out of 542 in 6.2mi obstacle course race.
Feeling good!

That's awesome. I wish I would have kept track of how many mile I've run since I decided to lose weight. Maybe I'll start soon. Congrats on the accomplishments.

Sounds good, keep us informed!

That is SO true. I have to stay committed, and I'm doing it with 2 others. Working together, we'll keep each other going.

Okay, so I have my moments....
:-)
I was actually
down another 3.8# last week!
I didn't realize that I was at 39# total last week!
But to make up for it, I actually did gain 2.4# this week....
:-)
Looks like it'll be
weeks now, to make my next goal.
:-)
But hey, I'm not quitin' yet!
